We don't see profit as a blind instrument.

Failure can be an incredibly motivating force.

Why do some people stop growing at age 30, just going from work to the couch and television, when others stay vibrant, curious, almost childlike into their nineties?

The poor also are willing to make, and do make, smart decisions, if you give them that opportunity.

The human spirit is extraordinary. If we give the 3 billion people who live in poverty the opportunity to change their lives, they will. For too long, we've looked at needing to "save" these people - with an emphasis on "these people" - rather than removing the constraints keeping them from solving their own problems.

Nothing important happens in life without a cost.

We need moral leadership and courage in our world.
